With over 15 years of counselling experience, I base my practice on kindness, acceptance and an understanding that we are all in this crazy life journey together. I knows that life can be hard, and that struggles are part of being human. I firmly believe that the primary role of being human is to help each other through as best we can.

My clinical framework is eclectic, drawing on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and Positive Psychology. I am authentic and open, use humour to help when appropriate, and gently challenge clients to see patterns, learn new skills and think in more helpful ways. My goal is to help clients develop resiliency and to invite more peace and happiness into their lives.

I am also trained in couples work and love to see couples move from adversarial to being deeply connected.  I help clients achieve this through compassionate listening skills, identifying unhelpful behaviour patterns and working with clients to understand and find new ways to help meet the needs of their partner.
